Up to one in five U.S. children experiences a mental disorder each year, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and only 21% of affected children get treatment. To estimate prevalence rates, the CDC compiled and analyzed 2005–2011 data for children age 3 to 17 years from several federal surveys and national databases. The result is CDC's first comprehensive look at children's mental health. Ruth Perou, Ph.D., child development studies team leader at the CDC and lead author of the report, said that the agency plans to continue updating these statistics and to present reports on adults' and children's mental health issues more frequently.
The most prevalent mental illness among children age 3 to 17 was attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) (6.8%). ADHD was twice as prevalent as behavioral or conduct disorders (3.5%), according to the report. Other prevalent disorders were anxiety (3.0%), depression (2.1%), and autism spectrum disorder (1.1%). The CDC also compiled data on past-year substance use disorders among children age 12 to 17 and found that 4.2% had an alcohol use disorder in the prior year and 4.7% had an illicit drug use disorder. Prevalence rates for some disorders varied by race and ethnicity. The lowest rate of ADHD, for example, was found among Hispanic children, behavioral or conduct disorders were highest among black non-Hispanic children, and autism spectrum disorder was most prevalent among white non-Hispanic children.
The estimated annual cost to families and society is $247 billion, including costs of treatment, special education, juvenile justice, and decreased productivity, according to research cited in the report.
"Mental Health Surveillance Among Children—United States, 2005–2011" was published as a supplement to the CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly report (www.cdc.gov/mmwr/pdf/other/su6202.pdf).

There are no mounting holes on this thing if you want to attach it to your workbench. It has to be held with ANOTHER vise. Drill some holes in this thing so people can put a couple bolts through it.
Wish I could give it a better review, really wanted to like this product. It's poorly machined, the travel of the moving vise is not smooth (gets stuck a lot), and the beveled vise plates (pretty much the main reason for buying this, right?) don't line up flush on the top face. So for example, you wouldn't want to use this to file the bottom of a nut or saddle down using the tops of the vise plates as your depth stop, because they are uneven with each other and that will ruin your flush bottom. I complained, Cust service said they'd have someone hand pick a replacement for me that didn't have this flaw, and the replacement I got was just as bad. Since I still needed something like this, I just sent the replacement back, kept the original, and filed the tops down flush myself. Pretty disappointing though, clearly does not look like a quality product, looks like cheap junk the moment you take it out of the box.
I've used this vise for several years. It's the go-to tool for every nut & saddle I make. It's a tough little vise, well made, and heavy.
I originally bought a vise that swiveled at a hardware store for $20. Well that thing is down the road since I got the nut and saddle vise. Smooth action and nice and heavy. I love this thing.
I have been looking for a small and precise tabletop vise and this is it! To consider this a "nut and saddle" vise exclusively does not do it justice - it can be used for so much more!!!!
If you're going to be doing a couple of nuts or more, this tool is a must have!! Priced right, very solidly built. Well done Stew Mac
I prefer to shape nuts on the guitar but this is great for doing acoustic saddles. Furthermore I find it really valuable when doing violin bridges and a lot of other small jobs around the shop. When I bought this I thought I was buying a luxury item. I was wrong. This has become an integral part of my work. Glad I bought it!
Must have for fabricating nuts or sadles. I put this one in my bench vise and vualaa it's great. The angles are right on the money for accuracy.
When it comes to saddles and nuts this vise is incredibly handy. As with most things, I find myself using it for other stuff too.
You Need, This, please buy This!!!

General Information
The M2i.46xx series allows recording of one, two, four or eight channels with sampling rates of 200 kS/s up to 3 MS/s. These cards offer outstanding A/D features both in resolution and speed for PCI/PCI-X and PCI Express. The powerful A/D amplifier section offers 8 different input ranges, programmable offset and a software switching from single-ended to differential inputs without decreasing the number of channels. The enhanced FIFO engine is capable of streaming even 8 channels at a sustained 3 MS/s to memory or hard disk.
The PCI bus in the form that is used today was first introduced in 1995. The last years it has been the most common platform for PC based instrumentation boards. Nowadays PCI based systems are more and more superseded by PCI Express based systems. Its world-wide range of installations, especially in the consumer market, still makes it a platform with good value. Based on the PCI bus the PCI-X bus was specified for applications needing a higher data throughput. On the PCI-X bus there are bus frequencies up to 133 MHz and data bus widths up to 64 bit available. The M2i and M3i cards use the PCI-X bus with 66 MHz to gain a high data throughput. All PCI and PCI-X cards from Spectrum are compatible to PCI as well as to PCI-X with 33 MHz up to 133 MHz bus frequency.
The BaseXIO option offers 8 asynchronous digital I/O lines on the base card. The direction can be selected by software in groups of four. Two of these lines can also be used as additional external trigger sources. This allows the building of complex trigger conjunctions with external gated triggers as well as AND/OR conjunction of multiple external trigger sources like, for example, the picture and row synchronisation of video signals. In addition one of the I/O lines can be used as reference clock for the Timestamp counter.
The FIFO mode is designed for continuous data transfer between measurement board and PC memory (up to 245 MB/s on a PCI-X slot, up to 125 MB/s on a PCI slot and up to 160 MB/s on a PCIe slot) or hard disk. The control of the data stream is done automatically by the driver on interrupt request. The complete installed on-board memory is used for buffer data, making the continuous streaming extremely reliable.
The ring buffer mode is the standard mode of all oscilloscope boards. Data is written in a ring memory of the board until a trigger event is detected. After the event the posttrigger values are recorded. Because of this continuously recording into a ring buffer there are also samples prior to the trigger event visible: Pretrigger = Memsize - Posttrigger.
The star-hub is an additional module allowing the phase stable synchronization of up to 16 boards in one system. Independent of the number of boards there is no phase delay between all channels. The star-hub distributes trigger and clock information between all boards. As a result all connected boards are running with the same clock and the same trigger. All trigger sources can be combined with OR/AND allowing all channels of all cards to be trigger source at the same time. The star-hub is available as 5 card and 16 card version. The 5 card version doesn't need an extra slot.
The data acquisition boards offer a wide variety of trigger modes. Besides the standard signal checking for level and edge as known from oscilloscopes it's also possible to define a window trigger. All trigger modes can be combined with the pulsewidth trigger. This makes it possible to trigger on signal errors like too long or too short pulses.
All boards can be triggered using an external TTL signal. It's possible to use positive or negative edge also in combination with a programmable pulse width. An internally recognized trigger event can - when activated by software - be routed to the trigger connector to start external instruments.
The Gated Sampling option allows data recording controlled by an external gate signal. Data is only recorded if the gate signal has a programmed level. In addition a pre-area before start of the gate signal as well as a post area after end of the gate signal can be acquired. The number of gate segments is only limited by the used memory and is unlimited when using FIFO mode.
The Multiple Recording option allows the recording of several trigger events with an extremely short re-arming time. The hardware doesn't need to be restarted in between. The on-board memory is divided in several segments of the same size. Each of them is filled with data if a trigger event occurs. Pre- and posttrigger of the segments can be programmed. The number of acquired segments is only limited by the used memory and is unlimited when using FIFO mode.
Defines the minimum or maximum width that a trigger pulse must have to generate a trigger event. Pulse width can be combined with channel trigger, pattern trigger and external trigger.
The trigger event is a slope inside the signal that is larger (or even smaller) than a programmed slope. Internally the difference of two adjacent samples is calculated and then compared to the programmed trigger level. This trigger mode allows the detection of signal distortions as needed for power line monitoring.
The timestamp option writes the time positions of the trigger events in an extra memory. The timestamps are relative to the start of recording, a defined zero time, externally synchronized to a radio clock, or a GPS receiver. With this option acquisitions of systems on different locations can be set in a precise time relation.
Using a dedicated connector a sampling clock can be fed in from an external system. It's also possible to output the internally used sampling clock to synchronize external equipment to this clock.
The internal sampling clock of the card is generated using a high precision PLL. This powerful device allows to select the sampling rate with a fine step size making it possible to perfectly adopt to different measurement tasks. Most other cards on the market only allow the setup of fixed sampling rates like 100 MS/s, 50 MS/s, 25 MS/s, 10 MS/s, ... without any possibility to set the sampling rate to any value in between.
The option to use a precise external reference clock (normally 10 MHz) is necessary to synchronize the board for high-quality measurements with external equipment (like a signal source). It's also possible to enhance the quality of the sampling clock in this way. The driver automatically generates the requested sampling clock from the fed in reference clock.
The on-board calibration can be run on user request and calibrates the amplifier against a dedicated internal high precision calibration source. After this calibration data is stored permanently in an on-board EEPROM and is automatically used for further acquisitions.
With a simple software command the inputs can individually be switched from single-ended (in relation to ground) to differential, without loosing any inputs. When the inputs are used in differential mode the A/D converter measures the difference between two lines with relation to system ground.
The analog inputs can be adapted to real world signals using individual settings for each channel. A large number of different input ranges and a programmable input offset allow to adopt perfectly to the real world signals.
Most of the Spectrum A/D cards offer a user programmable signal offset opening the Spectrum boards to a wide variety of setups. The signal offset at least covers a range of +/-100 % of the currently selected input range making unipolar measurements with the card possible. Besides this the input range offset can be programmed individually allowing a perfect match of the A/D card section to the real world signal.
A lot of third-party products are supported by the Spectrum driver. Choose between LabVIEW, MATLAB, LabWindows/CVI and IVI. All drivers come with examples and detailed documentation.
Programming examples for Microsoft Visual C++, Borland C++ Builder, Gnu C++ (CygWin), Borland Delphi, Microsoft Visual Basic, C#, J#, VB.Net, Python and LabWindows/CVI are delivered with the driver. Due to the simple interface of the driver, the integration in other programming languages or special measurement software is an easy task.
All cards are delivered with full Linux support. Pre compiled kernel modules are included for the most common distributions like RedHat, Fedora, Suse, Ubuntu or Debian. The Linux support includes SMP systems, 32 bit and 64 bit systems, versatile programming examples for Gnu C++ as well as the possibility to get the driver sources for own compilation.
SBench 6 is a powerful and intuitive interactive measurement software. Besides the possibility to commence the measuring task immediately, without programming, SBench 6 combines the setup of hardware, data display, oscilloscope, transient recorder, waveform generator, analyzing functions, import and export functions under one easy-to-use interface.
This standard driver is included in the card delivery and it is possible to get the newest driver version free of charge from our homepage at any time. There are no additional SDK fees for the classical text-based programming. All boards are delivered with drivers for Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8, all 32 bit and 64 bit.

The product has 4 MMCX connectors for the analog channels (one per chanel used for single-ended and two per channel used for differential inputs) and two SMB connectors for external clock and external trigger. Clock and trigger connections can be switched between input and output by software. The option BaseXIO has an addtional eight SMB connections.
Independent external pre-amplifiers allow to acquire extremely small signals with a reasonable quality. The external amplifiers are optimized for low noise inputs. The amplifiers of the SPA series are available with different bandwidth and input impedance options. No programming is needed to operate the amplifiers.
The Clock and Trigger Distribution card allows to externally connect several systems with a common clock and a synchronized trigger signal. One can connect up to 17 independent systems or external equipment using this card.

Check out the 2014 calendar for public events in Portland parks!
Various locations around Portland!
Tuesday, December 3 2013, 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM
Come buy great wreaths for a GREAT cause!
Event Types > Community Events
Why? Because our annual wreath fundraiser supports our Summer Nature Day Camp program, where we strive to connect children to the natural beauty & ecology of Portland's parks. At City Nature Environmental Education, we believe that connecting children to a park when they are young helps them care about parks as they get older.
Unfortunately, not all children can afford the cost of camp, so we raise money through our wreath fundraiser each December. All profits are used to bring children with very little access to nature to a week of Nature Day Camp. Partnering with schools and organizations helps us reach children in underserved neighborhoods. Sending a child to camp costs $240 - we provide buses, water bottles, snacks, and the staff.
Buy a winter wreath through Environmental Education or make a donation to the project and help send a child to camp!

LINCOLN — It's time for a Nebraska basketball player to get the same love Husker fans show other favorites who excel on both sides of the hyphen in "student-athlete."
Rise and cheer sometime soon for senior forward Brandon Ubel. He's a poor man's Rex Burkhead.
While Burkhead rightly gets heavy attention for boosting the image of NU football with his grace, class, smarts and performance, Ubel has done much the same, only in obscurity.
But his head coach has noticed.
"Brandon is a dream come true to coach," Tim Miles said. "He's a great kid, a model citizen and a heck of a player."
Those in the award-winning College of Journalism and Mass Communications have noticed.
"He's one of the favorites among the folks in our college," said Rick Alloway, associate professor of broadcasting. "He's been a great young man to get to know."
Most important, Ubel's teammates are well aware of his contributions.
"Rex is exactly who Brandon is like," junior guard Ray Gallegos said. "Everybody on campus knows Brandon. He's this big friendly guy and a good person to know because he's real smart and he'll help anybody."
Ubel is hard to miss going across campus at 6-foot-10 with blazing red hair. His smile-and-look-you-in-eye style has earned him mayoral-like status.
Yet he would have ample reason to mope, considering his circumstance.
In basketball, Nebraska is enveloped in a dozen years of darkness, marked by modest results, record attendance lows and no NCAA tournament bids.
Despite some recent changes in facilities, the impact of this institution's long-term acceptance of mediocrity will linger. Ask those trying to recruit around the empty trophy cases. Or check with the in-state prospects who look first to go elsewhere.
Ubel's challenge to stay on task has been complicated by the inexplicable beating he has taken on message boards since his arrival. He isn't LeBron James, and he never said he was.
Yet verbal vandals have hacked at Ubel since his freshman year, somehow ignoring that he played immediately instead of redshirting; he often played out of position due to injuries or recruiting failures; and his statistics suffered because he was overloaded with on-the-floor grunt work to make his team better.
Oh, and did anyone recall that Ubel has carried out orders from two head coaches and 11 assistants in 3� years?
After all that, he's lucky he can see straight.
Yet Ubel has stayed focused well enough to make academic all-conference in the Big 12 and the Big Ten, and get named to the first team of the Big Ten Network's all-improved team last week. His scoring (13) and rebound (seven) averages have nearly doubled.
Through it all, he holds no bitterness.
"I wouldn't trade any of this for the world," Ubel said. "I've loved it here, even through all the ups and downs on the court. I love Nebraska."
That love affair started when the Overland Park, Kan., native — now just one elective shy of graduation — first visited campus.
His older sister already was an NU track athlete, but Ubel wasn't a lock to follow. He had late interest from Stanford, Cal and Marquette, and offers from Wichita State, Drake and Utah State besides Nebraska.
"When I came here for my visit," Ubel said, "it was one of those deals where you get that feeling that it's the right place for you.
"I can't name just one thing. Sure, the facilities and the academic center catch your attention. But seeing the fans and meeting the people, I fell for the place."
With just three months to go in his last season, it's time for the fan base to love him back.
Ubel, like past unsung Husker basketballers in the dark period such as Jake Muhleisen, Jason Dourisseau and Lance Jeter, has shown a servant's heart and a leader's mind in setting examples and caring for teammates.
"If there is anything I can do or say to help, that's what I want," Ubel said. "And that's whether it helps them now or a year from now or three years from now."
Gallegos isn't sure where he would be in life if Ubel hadn't talked him out of transferring back to Salt Lake City three years ago.
"When I was down, we'd play pickup for so long that we would miss our meals and have to walk for fast food," Gallegos said. "He invited me to his family's place. He does that for other people, too. He's just an all-around nice guy."
Ubel's good works and do-it-right motto are evident in his journalism classes, too.
"I've seen him in the building early in the morning after a late-night game, jumping in ready to go to work," Alloway said. "He is the last person who would ever ask for any special treatment."
Miles, in his first season, has leaned heavily on Ubel.
"I need his voice," the coach said. "He's somebody who will provide leadership on the team and reach out through the community and across the state."
When Nebraska needed a player representative at its first two trips to Big Ten media days, who did it? Ubel.
When NU's Student-Athlete Advisory Council needed to fill an opening, who did it? Ubel.
When the Husker Athletics Fund needed a speaker after a recent ceremony at Pinnacle Bank Arena, who did it? Ubel.
There is no more of a stand-up guy for Nebraska than Ubel. Now it's time for Nebraskans to stand up for him before he says goodbye.

When I decided to move my business from a brick and mortar setting to the online world, I hired a web design company to create the perfect website for me. I thought that they would take care of everything so I was surprised when they told me that I would need to find a company to host the site they designed. They gave me some suggestions, but they all seemed high in price. I did a search for paypal hosting because I like to use my PayPal account that is tied to my business rather than my personal banking account when it comes to business expenses.
I didn't even understand what I was looking for, but I soon found out that I didn't need to understand it. That is because I found a site that explained everything in detail to me. Every web hosting company on the site allows for PayPal, so I just had to focus on the other features. Since I would be maintaining my site on my own, I wanted to have a control panel that was extremely user friendly. I really liked that the site I was using to compare features explained everything in detail, which is how I knew that the control panel was an important feature that I needed to consider.
I compared everything between all of the companies, and it did not take me long to find the one that is best for me. I compared prices, limits, control panels and customer reviews, and it was actually pretty easy to find the hosting company that would benefit me the most. Getting set up with them was quite easy too, and I am well on my way to becoming an online success. I thought I would need help with all of this, but I am finding out that I am a lot more capable than I gave myself credit for.
I Found the Right Hosting Company

Botox Treatment Located in New York
I would like to get Botox in the near future, because I think that it could help me to continue to look young, and to look beautiful. I have always loved to look beautiful, and that is part of the reason why I have spent so much time tanning in my life. That is coming back to bite me now, as I develop wrinkles earlier than I would have expected. It is the main reason I am looking to get botox in westchester ny, and I need to try to make the sun damage that my skin has, not so obvious.
I probably should have wore more sun tan lotion over the course of my life, but it never seemed to be all that important. I have skin that is pretty resilient, and it has never been prone to burning, when exposed to long periods of sun. I always considered myself lucky for that, but i guess that it might not have been so lucky. I am only 48 years old, and I am already starting to develop a fairly serious problem with wrinkles. That bothers me a great deal, and I had really hoped to remain beautiful, and to look young, for as long as I lived.
I know that clearly isn't realistic, but I must admit that I am still a rather vain person. I am not afraid to admit it either. I know that it is true, and there is really no point in trying to hide the truth. I think that getting Botox done on my face, is probably my best option open to me at this juncture. I have thought through the alternatives, and none of them sound very appealing to me. I just hope that it is not a very painful process to have to endure.Resume Studying
Change Your Personal Status Quo
After being strapped for cash despite working as much as I had been for the last few months, I realized that I was going to have to do something to change my own personal status quo. While I try not to put too much value in having money, it's nice to be able to have some sort of savings so I don't find myself ever inn a tight position that might lead to me losing my apartment or something equally terrible. Doing a bit of research lead me to a few cash for cars programs that were around town and knowing that I can find some very cheap vehicles around the auctions, I started to see the potential profits that could be made. At first, I stuck with just the auctions but as I began to grow in experience in finding used vehicles, junk cars and the like I began to see the other potential outlets that were available.
Now, this might sound pretty bad and in a way it is but if you really want to be able to make some extra money you're going to have to look for opportunity when opportunity presents itself. A lot of elderly couples, when their partners die, leave behind vehicles that were rarely driven. Often times you can coax them to sell that vehicle for a very good price - I do my best not to give them an unfair price in exchange for the car, I'd feel awful for that, and I admit that I do feel kind of bad for even making an offer in the first place but with cost of college loans on the rise and my books costing hundreds of dollars every semester I have to do what I have to do to be able to make my own end's meet.
Started Trying to Lose the Rest of the Weight
It is getting closer to Summer and I am going to be working in a new job too, one in a Malaysian beach resort. I have started trying to lose the rest of the weight that I picked up while my knee was messed up last summer. In fact I was behind an office desk for a long time and not able to do a whole lot else because of it. For a while I was on crutches and then I had to walk on a cane. I already did some slimming, because I was really motivated to do it when I was just clear of the cane and the doctors said that I could and that I needed to. It is hard to believe how quickly I put the weight on in fact. A lot of it is obviously from being forced to be more sedentary than usual, but of course when all you can do is to sit about and watch TV or browse the internet you get bored and when you are bored you tend to snack a lot more than you should.
My plan involves trying to swim a lot, which is pretty easy for me as I have access to the swimming pool at the hotel where I am currently and assistant manager. I like to get in the pool when I get off work in the middle of the night, not really sure why to be honest. However it is true that you can swim laps at 3 AM with no one to get in your way at all. I can walk the stairs as well. In fact I will go on security sweeps because that is a really good walk in a hotel this size. The chief of security is not so keen about it.Resume Studying
Best Cheap Prices for Internet Service
I am going to be moving out of my parents' in the near future, which is something I have aspired to do for years. It did not happen sooner, just because I have not had enough money. I finally have my own apartment, and I would like to move in as soon as I can. However, I need to get internet hooked up first, and I am going to be looking for cheap internet service in the area. I do not think that I can afford to pay too much, per month, for Internet service.
However, at the same time, I do not have much of a choice about getting Internet access. I am still in college, and also working at the same time. I am only going to school part-time, so it is not too big of a deal to also hold down a job. Anyway, I have to have an internet connection in my new apartment, so that I will be able to submit homework for my classes online. That is an important aspect of one of my class, and I have to do it occasionally in my other class as well.
I am looking forward to living in this apartment. It is the first time that I am going to have a significant degree of privacy in my entire life. That is what I am looking forward to more than anything else. Anyway, after some thought on the subject, I have decided that I should probably look for a DSL provider for my Internet connection. I just think it is more likely that I will be able to find DSL service at a price that I can actually afford. I do not want to waste time looking at internet service providers that I cannot afford in the first place.Resume Studying
Getting Ready to Move to Chapel Hill
Of course in general Chapel Hill is enemy territory and I am sure I am not going to be enjoy being around that many whiny Carolina fans, but that is where the job is and I found a really cheap house about half a mile from the office park where I am working. I had to figure out what fiber internet providers were available, because I am going to need a lot of bandwidth. I already have satellite tv and there is not any reason to change, because I am getting a very good deal. It is about thirty dollars a month for the service that I get and it includes a DVR and so forth, which is less than half of what I would have to pay for a cable tv here. Time Warner has a monopoly in most areas around here and they know it very well. It is not as though they are giving out discounts and really they do not give you the sort of service I would pay 70 or 80 dollars per month for, at least not in my opinion.
I still need to get a lot of things ready for the move. I am probably going to leave a lot of my stuff for my roommate, who needs it worse than me. Much of it needs to be replaced and this is a really good paying job. It is time for me to ditch a lot of that stuff, some of it is crap and all of it is cheap. So I am going to pretty much let loose of all the things that it is time for me to let loose of. I am going to let my girlfriend pick out all of the stuff for the living room, that will make her happy.Resume Studying

They Really Saved My Life
Don't you just hate it when something gets clogged in your drain and you have to spend a few hours trying to get it out just so you can run water in your sink without it overflowing. We have all been there and it is one of the worst feelings ever, there is just no good way to deal with that. So if you don't want to or if something bad like you drop a valuable down the drain and need it removed safely than you should call for drain cleaning in new rochelle ny. If you drop something valuable down the drain and it is in a delicate spot than you really should hire the pros to come and try to remove it because if they do not than you might lose it forever. The most common thing that is dropped down there is rings, but others things make it as well.
For instance a few years ago I was doing the dishes and just as I drained the sink the clasp on my necklace gave way and it was sent spiraling down into the drain. I didn't even try to get it out myself, I just instantly called them to come and tear my sink apart to get it out. The necklace was not particularly expensive or anything, but the sentimental value that it held could never be replaced to me. It was my grandmothers necklace and if I had lost it I do not know how I could have ever faced my family again. I am just glad that they were able to get out to my house so fast and get it out for me before something bad happened to it. Without them I would be in a very rough spot right now, so I recommend them to everyone.Resume Studying
Sometimes We Trick Ourselves into Working
Looking for direct tv packages can be quite hard, they have all sorts of things that they say are available but when you get down to look at exactly what each package contains most of them have the same stuff in them, with one or two extra channels added in. For this reason alone I usually just go with their basic package and then add in every channel that I want for like a dollar a month or something, it really is not bad and is absolutely worth it to me. I know that a lot of people see that five or six dollars for a movie channel and think no way, but if you think about it that is way less than going to the movies once a month so you might as well grab that channel and enjoy it. I go to the movies all of the time and if I had a movie channel that would be just awesome.
But everyone has their own preferences and some people think that maybe if it is not there they will be more productive or something like that, but in reality I don't think that the amount of channels you get is in any way correlated with the amount of work that you get done, but hey if that is what they want to think than who am I to stop them. We all have little things that we do to trick ourselves into getting work done and if this is theirs than more power to them because it is hard to find something to motivate you sometimes. I know from first hand experience that it can be really hard to get yourself into the working mindset, sometimes it is even impossible but we have to at least pretend like we are getting work done.Resume Studying

Maximizing Profit with High Risk
With the housing market finally on the rebound, I have started to actually sell off the houses that I had been buying during the downturn. I knew it was a risky financial investment to make but at the same time, there could be a lot of profit that was going to be involved should the market bounce back in five years - that was the goal I had set for myself, because if it went any longer, the property taxes would have started to cut deep into my profit margin. Luckily, I had the help of www.regius.com.sg, the property consulting agency, that afforded me a time table in which I would be able to maximize my profits with the initial investment I made in that first year. I only bought houses for two years, focusing only on properties that were going to be foreclosed on as so many were those first couple of years.
It turned out to be a wise investment and my first half dozen homes netted me quite a bit of money in return. My wife was highly concerned that we wouldn't be able to make any money off of them, which just shows that at times if you want to make any kind of profit you have to be able to take some kind of risk. I think with the last couple of pieces of property, I will actually start to rent out the homes that I have. This way I will always have some sort of disposable income that will come from the houses and I'll even allow my oldest son to manage the property - at least, in this, I will be able to afford my family some sort of job and some kind of income which is going to be incredibly important in years to come.
Education Eliminated My Panic over Herpes
When my doctor told me that I had herpes, I was mortified. I didn't understand anything about it other than it is often considered a sexually transmitted disease. I knew that there was no way that I could have it because of that, and that is when he told me that there are two different types of herpes. He explained that while one is sexually transmitted, the other one does not need to be. I asked him how to get rid of herpes, and that is when he gave me the second shock of the day.
He told me that there is no cure right now. I was envisioning all sorts of things in my mind, and I think he could tell that I was on the verge of a panic attack. I just kept thinking about what people would think about me if they found out, and I also worried about what it was going to do to my body. He gave me so much reassurance that day, and I went home and read some more information on herpes too. I found a website that is packed full of good information, and I felt the most relief by the time I was done reading it.
I realized first that this is not a death sentence, or even a reason to become distressed. Millions of people have herpes, and they all live with it fine because it is a very manageable condition. I was given some medication to help me with the initial outbreak, but I was told that my outbreaks would lessen in the severity, and it could even get to the point where I would not have anymore, even though I would still have the herpes virus. I don't take this lightly, but I know that I am just fine now too.

Concurrent licences are widely used across the Education sector, but the use policy has not always been clear raising a number of questions from Education customers.
The policy was revised on November 15th 2011 following requests from a number of customers for clarification on different use scenarios. However, the policy only takes effect when a customers' CLP agreement is renewed. The main changes are designed to clarify the policy, and in particular highlight prohibited scenarios, for example:
- Access or use of the Software on a Computer not physically located at a campus facility
- Installation or use of the Software on a Computer not owned and controlled by you (including but not limited to Computers owned by students or otherwise in students' possession)
- Access or use of the Software for administrative use
- Access or use of the Software in a virtual lab through remote access
To view the policy in full please visit - http://www.adobe.com/go/concurrency
What is the impact of this on the community?
The revised concurrency policy is only in effect for those members of the community who have an Adobe CLP agreement which started or was renewed after November 15th, 2011. For customers with a current CLP agreement at the time of the change (Nov 15th 2011), the policy only comes into effect when this agreement expires, and is renewed. A good example is the Eduserv Framework Agreement due to be renewed on March 1st 2013, at which point the new policy will take effect
What recommendations would Adobe like to make to the community?
Firstly, we strongly encourage all members of the community to understand the revised policy and determine the impact on their individual institution.
Secondly, concurrent licenses are only one of several licensing programs available to Adobe customers. As an alternative there is the Enterprise License Agreement (ELA) which has been introduced as a direct result of customers requesting an easier way to license their Adobe software. As a result many institutions who have signed up to an ELA agreement have been able to:
- increase student access to Adobe creative software
- simplify the deployment process
- simplify software asset management
- support on-campus virtualization.
Who should the community contact if they want to discuss their particular licensing needs?
We would strongly recommend that if any institution is concerned about this policy or the Eduserv Adobe ELA they should contact their Adobe account manager:
- For Institutions in the East of England and Ireland, contact: Pennie O'Sullivan Email: email@example.com Tel: +44 (0)7720 639509
- For the West of England, Scotland and Wales, contact: Bengta Jordan Email: firstname.lastname@example.com Tel: +44 (0)7734 158891

Philly's woes go much deeper than a need for a second puck-moving defenseman.
After Forsberg was ejected from the game Thursday night, he proceeded to smash his stick, and several other things in the dressing room. He then got dressed and left the arena, abandoning everybody. Two weeks ago, he declined a shootout opportunity. He refused to take the shootout because he "didn't feel confident". Finally, by the sixth shooter, he relented. (FYI - he missed).
These are not exactly leadership qualities, and the Philly media is already beginning to criticize him for it, saying that the "C" is weighing down his jersey. Combine all this garbage with rumors of a year ago (and the year before that...and the year before that...) that Peter the Great would end his hockey career with a couple of years in Sweden, plus his constant injuries - and I wouldn't touch him with a seven-foot Chara in my keeper league.
Own him already? I would suggest waiting a month or so for the 33-year-old to get above a point per game...and then ditch him to another owner. I think he will be out of the NHL in about two years.

Just one month into 2013 and it's already time to award the first round of Flubbies — recognizing the region's biggest public-relations flubs.
We're talking moves so dim they made the Superdome's third-quarter lights look bright.
There's a surprising amount of competition so far for the Flubbies. Seems like lots of folks are taking a turn on the low stoop of public-image blunders.
But some stand above (or is that below?) the rest.
Biggest bluff. Did anyone really think the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts was going to let the Florida Theatrical Association take blockbuster shows like "Wicked" anywhere other than the new center when it opens next year?
The decision by the center's executive board to try to self-present Broadway shows rather than partner with the association posed the biggest financial risk to the theater since it started coming out of the ground.
Not only did the decision alienate the local arts community, big donors and arguably its biggest champion, Mayor Buddy Dyer ... it appears that it just wouldn't have worked.
Last week the arts center reached a deal with the theatrical association to co-present shows, but not before it raised the ire of people closest to the project.
Most tone deaf. Osceola County Clerk of Court Armando Ramirez turned heads with his power-hungry transition
Ramirez came into office cutting salaries of established employees — never popular, though sometimes necessary. Then he started hiring cronies at higher pay and gave his wife her own office in the courthouse.
In his strangest move yet, Ramirez issued a six-page dress code for employees. It's notable for its specificity (panty hose must be worn in front of juries) and for this command (in all caps), "SO LET IT BE WRITTEN. SO LET IT BE DONE."
Does this guy think he's a courthouse administrator or the Pharaoh?
Worst timing. Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women & Babies happily rolled out plans last month for a new building devoted to women's health.
Hospital President Kathy Swanson talked about how women are the "heart of families."
Then, just days later, Winnie announced it would lay off staff that those very customers ... er ... patients loved the most. The hospital cut some of the maternal education classes it offers, as well as the nurses best known to local moms because they ran the breast-feeding program.
Talk about horrible timing. But there's more flubbing.
The hospital pays lip service to women's health and then overlooks simple things in its multimillion-dollar buildings, like not having a dedicated room for these women to meet.
These support groups and classes for women are more than social gatherings. Lactation consultants can help detect problems with newborns and correct feeding issues that otherwise might send a baby to the doctor or back to the hospital. And the nurses help women with breast-feeding related infections that can easily land them back in the hospital.
Enough mixed messages.
Most suspicious. This round of Flubbies wouldn't be complete without a nod to Orange County Sheriff Jerry Demings, who insisted his new drones were no big deal while refusing to say much about them at all.
Demings would have been better off if he had explained from the get-go that these mini-helicopters with cameras wouldn't be used to spy on residents. He eventually demonstrated the drones for the public, but not before dodging a lot of questions. "No big deal" and secrecy just don't mix. See Orange County's "textgate" and the saga of Gov. Scott's former First Dog Reagan for further evidence of that.

I have been dealing with some challenges over the past couple of weeks. My dad went in for a simple cataract surgery. The procedure went well except the very next day he was in intense pain. He saw the doctor immediately who discovered a "horrid infection" in his eye. For two weeks he has gotten injections, drops of very expensive medication all to no avail. Today he sees the specialist who said he needed to have emergency surgery. Fortunately, I had accompanied him to the appointment and was able to ask questions. Her prognosis for him is 'guarded' and she indicated that he has months before they will know if his vision will return at all. We go quickly to the surgicenter where the eye surgeon does a quick examination. During this examination,my dad was unable to see any light at all. The surgeon turns to me and says, "this is not a good sign" and left the room. I read that as an indicator that it is worse than initially thought and that the chance for getting his vision back was hopeless. Of course, that remains to be determined and I'm trying to be hopeful. I'm scared and very concerned for my folks. They are quite active and my dad will have a difficult time accepting the loss of his vision if that comes to be. I told my mom she needs to be prepared for the worst case scenario and though she didn't want to hear that, I'm being realistic.
So while this is extremely difficult, I am more disappointed in my 'friends'. Earlier today I text my childhood friend, whom I've known forever. In fact, her dad was at the hospital with us. Her reply was... 'BUMMER'. WTH? That's all the consolation she has to offer. She lost a relative a few weeks ago. I was emailing, calling and texting her daily to see how they were holding up and all she could say was 'bummer'???
I told another friend when it happened two weeks ago and I've not heard one word from her. She went through a financial crisis, for which I not only offered assistance, but I stayed in daily contact with her to support her through a tough time. No emails, txts or calls from her at all.
I'm angry about my dad's situation but damn, I am pissed at my 'friends'. Michael tells me I'm being too sensitive and that I shouldn't expect people to act the same way I do. Maybe he's right but if you can't count on your friends during a time like this, when can you?
I am so hurt, scared and overwhelmed. It's hard to know what to do because truthfully, there's nothing to be done.
Thanks for listening.

Woman's $100,000 Bequest to Her Cat Is Upheld
|0 Comments
ALBANY - An appeals court has deferred to a surrogate who ruled that a woman was not under the undue influence of others when she disinherited her three nephews in a new will and bequeathed $100,000 for the care of "Kissie Meouw," her cat.
The attorney who drew up the new will in 2007 indicated that Charlotte Stafford was "very aware" and "alert" as they worked on the revisions together, the Appellate Division, Third Department said in Matter of Stafford, 516429.
Attorney Thomas Emerson of Norwich said he explained to Stafford the effect of the changes she requested and she told him, "That's what I want," according to the ruling.
"By all accounts, decedent was a very intelligent, private and strong-willed woman who 'ran her life the way she wanted to run it,'" Justice John Egan Jr. (See Profile) wrote for a unanimous panel.
The court added that Emerson "did not observe any evidence of undue influence with respect to the execution of the various instruments or the dispositions contained within."
Emerson's conclusions about Stafford's competency were confirmed by the paralegal who accompanied him to Stafford's home in Oxford, Chenango County, in August 2007 and witnessed her signature on the revised will, according to the court.
Stafford had made three earlier wills, none of which mentioned the cat. The documents called for Stafford's three nephews, Richard Stafford, David Stafford and James Stafford to share equally from the estate, although the versions in February 1997 and January 2007 designated $67,000 and $81,000, respectively, for donations to charities.
In addition to disinheriting her three nephews, Charlotte Stafford designated that $300,000 be used to maintain her ancestral home. The home, in turn, was to be held in trust for the benefit of the Town of Oxford to be used for historical research and preservation purposes, according to the will.
Stafford directed that $100,000 be placed in a pet trust for the benefit of her cat, identified in court papers as "Kissie Meouw Stafford." The trust, which also included funds for the maintenance of the Stafford home, will terminate upon Kissie's death or the passage of 21 years after Charlotte Stafford's death, according to her will.
Stafford's friend, housemate and care-giver, Vicky House, was designated as Kissie's caretaker, according to the will, and allowed to live in the Stafford home rent-free for as long as she acted in the cat caretaker capacity.

On the surface it is the story of two great friends, Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft, and the terrible ending of that great friendship.
But Goodwin uses those two men to tell the larger story of the turn-of-the-century Progressive Movement and the role they both played in advancing progressive causes, along with a remarkable cadre of investigative journalists.
It is timely that this historical masterpiece should come out this month during the celebration (and condemnation) of the 50th anniversary of the War on Poverty, which was declared by the president Goodwin served, Lyndon B. Johnson.
Both of these movements were born in great turmoil, new ideas and relationships pushing against a powerful and determined status quo, which refused to yield their status without a fight.
Goodwin's book also describes the perpetual struggle between the interests of those who own the engine of the marketplace, those who work for the owners and the state as a mediator in that recurring battle.
In both cases, out of the testing of wills in battle emerged a better nation.
Isn't it ironic that Roosevelt, alone among modern presidents, was deemed worthy to have his face carved on Mount Rushmore alongside Washington, Jefferson and Lincoln but who couldn't win a primary for any office in today's Republican Party?
Neither could Taft, the only man ever to be both president and chief justice of the United States, be nominated for a federal judgeship by the modern GOP. Too liberal, too soft on unions.
Roosevelt's trust-busting, consumer-friendly "Square Deal" burst on the scene with all the energy of a rapidly industrializing America. A star group of reporters had been assembled by the brilliant S.S. McClure for the magazine that bore his name. Roosevelt saw from their exposés the underside of accumulations of wealth.
Roosevelt read and became friends with a New York police reporter, Jacob Riis, who wrote How The Other Half Lives, and with Lincoln Steffens, whose series in McClure's became a book, The Crime of the City.
Almost in tandem when Roosevelt was police commissioner, the three uncovered police corruption, handouts to look the other way, which went to the top, and 2 a.m. raids along with Roosevelt that startled cops sleeping on the job.
Other influential journalist friends were Ida Tarbell, who exposed the vicious crushing of competitors by John D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil. Another friend was Upton Sinclair, who vividly described how meat packers let rat feces spice up your morning sausage.
The bottom line of TR's Square Deal was the shutting down of 44 monopolies, new meat inspections and pure food and drug acts, and millions of acres which were placed under protection of the government for the pleasure of picnickers and tourists.
Fifty years after Roosevelt left office in 1908, the progressive movement morphed not into bloody strikes but tumultuous though nonviolent appeals to the conscience of the nation to free black citizens who were captives of legal racism.
The response of the Kennedy and Johnson administrations was The Great Society, which encompassed the War on Poverty and much more. Again, new ideas and relationships pushed against an adamant status quo, which insisted, as opponents of Obamacare do now, that the free will of Americans would disappear in the smothering embrace of an all-powerful federal government.
A question for defenders of the status quo then is: 50 years on, would we be better off without the Voting Rights Act, the opening of university doors to blacks and the creation for the first time in history of a black middle-class body of consumers in the South?
Would health be better if we didn't have Medicare and Medicaid? Would life be sweeter and more uplifting without NPR on our radios and Downton Abbey on our TV sets?
Would the Great Recession be less harsh for millions of middle-income people thrown out of work without food stamps?
It seems undeniable that a better America emerged from both The Square Deal and The Great Society.

As a practicing pediatrician for 12 years and the coordinator of the pediatric trauma unit at the Cook County Children's Hospital, Dr. Demetra Soter has had extensive interaction with DCFS in relationship to children who have been severely abused or neglected. In that time she has seen the agency make several advancements in the way it protects children.
According to Dr. Soter, improvements in child protection have included an increase in the number of better trained workers and a system that "now listens." Today, there is a greater emphasis on the education of caseworkers as more workers take advantage of the Social Work Education Program (SWEP), the advanced degree program offered by the agency. The relationship between investigators and doctors, which is crucial to child abuse investigations, has also improved. Another key improvement for DCFS was the appointment of Jess McDonald, who is knowledgeable about child welfare issues. "Jess McDonald knows what's going on in the system and that results in better care for our kids, " she said.
Apart from DCFS, Dr. Soter praised Public Guardian Patrick Murphy for helping to change the face of child protection in Illinois. She credited him with heightening the public's awareness of child abuse.
"Before (Murphy) came into office, I would see all this (abuse) but no one in the community knew what was going on because everything was confidential," Dr. Soter recalled. "A lot of (the change) is because of pressure from Patrick Murphy's office."
In comparing Illinois' system with other states Dr. Soter noted that here, child protection is a great deal more developed. In Wisconsin, for example, the child abuse hotline is set up in only one county and only operates during business hours. An abuse or neglect report will not follow a family once it leaves that county. This is unlike Illinois, where the system covers the entire state around the clock. "New York is cutting their budget for child protection services and (Illinois is) expanding," Dr. Soter said. "And it's not all (about) money, there's a difference in attitude."
That difference has come as a result of the important strides that the system has made in the last decade in particular. "I'm glad I live in Illinois. I could not have said that 10 years ago," Dr. Soter insisted. "When it comes to child abuse prevention, I think we do a really good job. The judges are better, the court system is better. The whole outlook is better. It's not as grim and pessimistic."
In terms of her own job, Dr. Soter estimated that she reports 50 percent of the children she examines to the child abuse hotline. As a member of the Child Protective Services team at the Cook County Children's Hospital, she has seen a great deal in terms of the abuse and the neglect of children.
One mother, she recalled, left the hospital with a child who had been accidentally burned because she had five prior reports with DCFS. "So, even though the kid got burned by accident, she left," Dr. Soter said, "Now she may lose custody of her child" The doctors later learned that the only reason the mother brought the girl to the hospital was because a follow-up worker had cut off her public aid after he hadn't seen the family in four months.
Dr. Soter and other members of the Child Protective Services Team are often called in to evaluate a child before a report is made to the hotline. On any day the team can see as many as 10 children. In her opinion, working with a group is easier because, unlike investigators who work alone, a doctor doesn't have to make a decision about the suspicion of abuse or neglect without the input and opinion of others. The 12-member team includes social workers, doctors, nurses, a dietician, a psychiatrist, a representative from the women's violence program and DCFS child protection manager John Robinson.
In addition to her work at the hospital, Dr. Soter has been a member of the Child Fatality Task Force since its creation in 1992. The task force investigates the deaths of children who have had previous involvement with DCFS. The groups make recommendations to Director McDonald after examining how a child died and what contributed to the child's death. Finding solutions that lead to child abuse prevention is the ultimate goal of the task force. "What we have learned is it's not finger pointing (that prevents child deaths), it's what we can do differently," Dr. Soter said.
Although she sees a lot of children who have died at the hands of abusive or negligent parents, there is a more positive side to what Dr. Soter decision-making a difference in the lives of the children who are not dead. Granted, she admitted, if a dead child is brought to the hospital there is nothing that can be done for him or her. But there is hope for the sibling(s) of that child or an abused child who is still alive.
"We can guarantee that whether he goes back home with services or to an auntie or a foster home, he is going somewhere better," Dr. Soter said. "That's the one thing that we have ... when our kids leave the hospital they usually go to something better."

Common – Stolen Moments Pt. I LyricsFollow
Down da-down-da-down-down-down, what (x3)
Down-da-down, check it, check it
[Verse 1]
There was a Hardy Boy mystery I was trying to solve
Can't understand who the fuck was involved
Back from a show I had came, hopped off the plane
In my mind home was pictured and rest was the frame
My guy came to grab me in something less than a Caddy
Go buy them gas and food was less than a cabby
As we approach my tilt, paranoia in my bones had built
By the lock on the door, a hole was drilled
I opened it to the kitchen floor my heart knelt
In my shit, somebody had broke in like a mitt
My mind started swinging and who I thought the glove fit
As usual, niggas is suspects
Who did I tell I was going out of town?
Not too many people, I guess the word got around
The people upstairs should have been disturbed by the sound
Must have came in during the day when at work they was found
At the mound I stand vocal pitch high, asking who done it
Fuck Hitchcock, I got the fifth cocked, about to go Wild Hundreds
Whoever did it had the nerve to chill, and get blunted
And left a roach in the ash tray I had cleaned out the last day
Before I left, this thief decided to play chef
Overlooked beef in the fridge to cook chicken breast
I'm kicking what shit was left all around the house
Thinking whoever came in on me is out
It's a frantic situation
It's a frantic situation, yes it is
It's a frantic situation
It's a frantic situation, hear me now
(Repeat x2)

4381 Reading Rd, Cincinnati, OH | Directions 4522939.164516 -84.472014
Mon-Sun: 7am-3pm
Neighborhoods: Paddock Hills
Homey Atmosphere, Delicious Food, Great Experience – I make my way to Sugar N' Spice probably twice a week to enjoy the homey atmosphere, delicious food, and a great overall experience. The restaurant is filled with the type of people who want to whip up a conversation with anyone else who is there. Everyone at Sugar N' Spice has something in common, they all have found the city's best breakfast spot. If you enjoy striking up conversations with random people or just taking in an experience, then sit at the counter so you can see the whole restaurant.
The food is always good an cooked to perfection. Aside from the famous Wispy Thin Pancakes and Huge Omelets the menu is full of other great items. Of course they serve the Cincinnati favorites, and my personal favorite, goetta and it is always crispy, just as it should be. Stop by for lunch sometime and try the wings and mac n' cheese, absolutely delicious.
The staff is always friendly, prompt, and efficient.
Best in the City – Ive been coming here for about 3 years now and I can honestly say it puts any other breakfast place to shame. The homely atmosphere and staff is unparalled, and not to mention the food is out of this world! From the wispy thin pancakes to the gigantic omlettes..it really doesnt get any better! This is the place to be for breakfast.
Voted best late night but open til 3pm? – Voted best late night but open til 3pm and Best Thai?
I am confused by the rating of 3rd best late night restaurant yet it isn't even open at night....someone get this best rating removed!
Now I see it on Best Thai? Yeah something is messed up with this website or someone is playing serious head games
Best Breakfast and Lunch – Of course they have the best omeletes and pancakes in town, but they have a ton of other stuff on the menu. You could eat there every day of the week for a month and never order the same thing twice or be disappointed.
The new owner, Steve, is a hoot. And his new BBQ is great.
Skip the First Watches of the world. This is the place.
Thanks for the kind words. Next time you're in please let me know and I'll fill you in on all the suprises planed for this and next year. I guess you could go a month but with all the stuff the customers make up, like the bacon waffle and the sweet potato waffleburger, it seems like the menu has become a suggestion of lot's of food, but truth be told, the combination may be endless or at least a whole bunch.
The food is good, but the homey atmosphere and the dirt-heap prices are the draw at this cozy spot. – The Scene
Behind the unassuming facade on Reading Road is an even more unassuming interior, with floral wallpaper that reminds you of grandma's house and an antique cash register ringing up the checks. Friendly servers circulate with pots of coffee, addressing the regulars by name and the newcomers by "hon."
The Food
Breakfast is served all day, and the place is packed with folks enjoying the "whispy thin" pancakes, omelets, or just a giant parfait glass full of fruit. A sense of humor is evident in the names of the lunch sandwiches, such as the "Hooked 'n' Cooked" (fish sandwich), "Red 'n' Yeller" (grilled cheese with tomato) and "Hit the Deck" (double-decker with salami and Swiss). Try the "Alotta Bull" with a half-pound of beef, or the "Windy Special" with--you guessed it--grilled onions.
Same Great Food and Much More. You need to come back in and check out the hand painted murals and new/old decor. Same place just in better shape. The wispy thin pancakes are still best in cincy along with the biggest omelettes you'll ever eat. Lot's of new item and all the old favorites PLUS extended hours till 8pm on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Best Pancakes, Omlettes, Coffee – The "wispy thin" pancakes are the best around. The coffee, from local roaster Wallingford, is always fresh and hot. And the omlettes are always a great choice. Without a doubt, the best breakfast in Cincinnati. The only problem is everyone knows this, and so it's often crowded. Get there early.
cozy food – The food is good...the prices are excellent and the atmosphere is just like home!
After 20 years or so Sugar n' Spice is now open until 8pm on Thursday, Friday and Saturday serving the same great favorites along with new ones; salmon patties, tilapia, catfish, philly sandwich or omelette and more ... all day PLUS ribs & chicken off the new outdoor grill, plenty of sides and Specials. Check us out on facebook/sugar.n.spice.restaurant and see photos and the new menu, our web site sugar-n-spice-restaurant or better yet come on in.
